Publisher's Synopsis
Cale, a corporate executive seeking a slower pace of life for his artist wife, Sarah, and their curious teenage daughter, Ivy, moves his family to a secluded Alpine village in Austria. As the only expats in the village, the family's presence stirs both curiosity and suspicion among the tight-knit community.
Ivy stumbles upon an old diary hidden in the attic, which she reads aloud. Unknowingly, she awakens the ancient spirit of Frau Perchta. The diary reveals the village's dark past, including a terrible secret involving a broken pact with Perchta. As Ivy reads the forbidden words, Perchta's malevolent presence grows stronger, and the curse begins to manifest.
